This is probably OT but it is about PINS history and it says something about beachcombing. This is just a snippet of three columns by Murphy Givens. You get 5 free articles in the smaller times so you should be able to see it.

History of the island, and Murphy Givens, doesnt get any better than that. Mr Givens was my only reason to hang on to the ct.

With him retired, and now David Sikes retiring next month, I suppose it's time to retire the Caller-Times.

Au revoir, fish wrapper/birdcage liner/Trump-bashing rag.... Cool

David Sikes is retiring? I am sorry to hear that. He is one of the best.

Sad

I think we've got a few men who could step into those shoes. Colin? Oz? Though they might have to carve down their calendars to make it happen. Hmmmm. Tyler?????? Very Happy

I have always wanted to take my horses and ride the back country behind the dunes, but know it is not allowed. Shame what could be seen and enjoyed horseback back there.
